i want after i've been submit form it can show hit counter..
but i want after it reach "20" it can back to zero..bcoz the limit of submit is 20 times so it can't over the limit.
how do i make it works?I've been try to this code...
<?
$limit="20";
$Query_counter=mysql_query("SELECT model FROM inspec");
$Show_counter=mysql_fetch_array($Query_counter);
$show_counter = $show_counter["model"]+1;
if($show_counter > $limit[0]) {
$show_counter = 0;
}elseif ($show_counter > $limit[1]) {
$show_counter = 0;
}
$Query_update=mysql_query("UPDATE inspec SET model=$Show_counter");
$Show_counter=number_format($Show_counter);
$Show_counter=str_replace(",",".",$Show_counter);
echo "Hit:</br><strong>$show_counter</strong>";
?>
To make a counter go up to a certain value then loop back to zero, you can use the modulus operator, which in a lot of languages (including PHP and MySQL) is %
$x = 0;
$limit = 4;
for ($i = 0; $i < 10; ++$i) {
$x = ++$x % $limit;
echo $x;
}
// 1, 2, 3, 0, 1, 2, 3, 0, 1, 2
I hope that makes enough sense. I can't really figure out from the question what exactly you want... Perhaps something like this?
UPDATE `mytable` SET `mycounter` = (`mycounter` + 1) % {{the limit}}
The concept here is to test to see if the variable you're incrementing exceeds some acceptable range as a result of the next increment. Simple increment the variable, then test its value.
In your case, just add a test after you increment the counter:
$show_counter = $show_counter["model"]+1;
if($show_counter > $limit){
$show_counter = 0;
}
Be sure to define $limit to whatever number you want to cycle on.
If you want to do this for multiple thresholds you can add additional tests. Note that you could hard-code $limit to any number or any variable you want, it's just the thing you're testing against.
<?
$Query_counter=mysql_query("SELECT model FROM inspec");
$Show_counter=mysql_fetch_array($Query_counter);
$show_counter = $show_counter["model"]+1;
$x = 0;
$limit = 20;
for ($i = 0; $i < 30; ++$i) {
$x = ++$x % $limit;
echo $x;
}
$Query_update=mysql_query("UPDATE inspec SET model= (model + 1) % 20");
$Show_counter=number_format($Show_counter);
$Show_counter=str_replace(",",".",$Show_counter);
echo "Hit:</br><strong>$show_counter</strong>";
?>

I need to find the averege after using a loop counting ever 3rd to a 100. The loop part is easy enough, but I need to sum every value then divide the sum on the total of values.
for ($x = 3; $x < 100; $x+=3) {
echo $x.", ";
}
This is the loop I need to use. How to I sum the values this produces and how do I find how many values this loop produces?
I believe the intention here is to learn about loops, otherwise this stuff can be done without looping too.
For learning purpose, you can simply introduce two variables count and sum and compute them inside the loop. For count, you just increment it on each iteration. For sum, you add the current value of x into sum. After the loop you print both variables.
$count = 0;
$sum = 0;
for ($x = 3; $x < 100; $x+=3) {
echo $x.", ";
$count++;
$sum+=$x;
}
echo $sum;
echo $count;
add your elements into an array and then use array_sum to sum the array elements , then divide the sum by the count of your array
$arr = [];
for ($x = 3; $x < 100; $x+=3) {
// echo $x.", \n";
$arr[] = $x;
}
print_r(array_sum($arr) / count($arr));
// Output : 51
$i=0;
$tempx=0;
for ($x = 3; $x < 100; $x+=3) {
//total sum
$tempx = $tempx + $x;
//count of how many times the loop ran in this case 33 times
$i++;
}
//first $i was 0 so we add 1
$i=$i + 1;
//getting the average
$average=$tempx / $i;
echo $average;
//output
For the last answer i think we should not do:
//first $i was 0 so we add 1 $i=$i + 1;

I am having some problems with PHP.
I used while to sum a number's digits always that it has more than two digits, some how, it gets into an infinity loop.
e.g: 56 = 5 + 6 = 11 = 1+1= 2.
Here is the code:
$somaP = 0;
$numPer = (string)$numPer; //$numPer = number calculated previously
while (strlen($numPer) > 1){
for ($j = 0; $j < strlen($numPer); $j++){
$somaP = $somaP + (int)($numPer[$j]);
}
$numPer = (string) $somaP;
}
Can anyone help me? Guess it is a simple mistake, but I couldn't fix it.
You need to reset the value of $somaP in your while loop.
Currently it continues to increase its value every time through the loop.
Try this:
$numPer = (string)$numPer; //$numPer = number calculated previously
while (strlen($numPer) > 1){
$somaP = 0;
for ($j = 0; $j < strlen($numPer); $j++){
$somaP = $somaP + (int)($numPer[$j]);
}
$numPer = (string) $somaP;
}
Take a look at this line:
$numPer = (string) $somaP;
It seems that the length of $somaP is never lesser (or equal) than 1. So the length of $numPer is never lesser (or equal) than 1.
What are you trying to do?
It's unclear to me.
This for example would add every number in a string together?
E.g "1234" = 1+2+3+4 = 10
$total = 0;
for($i = 0; i < strlen($string); $i++){
$total += $string[$i];
}
echo $total;
This looks cleaner I would say:
$numPer = 56;
while ($numPer > 9){
$numPer = array_sum(str_split($numPer));
}
echo $numPer;
PHP handles all string <> number conversions for you, so no need to do (string) on a number unless really needed.
How are they different? Here's what I'm thinking, but I'm not sure....
If you use pre-incrementation, for example in a for loop with ++j, then you are basically saying: "Make a copy of the value of j for use in the loop, then increment j, then go through the statements in the loop with the copy of j." If you are using post-incrementation in the same loop j++, then you are basically saying: "Make a copy of the value of j for use in the loop, then go through the statements in the loop with the copy of j, then increment j."
The reason I'm unsure is because I've created a for loop that multiplies the value of j by 10 and then outputs the result for j=1 through j=12, using both post- and pre-incrementation. The human readable output is exactly the same with post- and pre-incrementation. I'm thinking, 'How are the outputs exactly the same if there isn't some kind of copy operation involved?'
So, I'm guessing the difference between pre- and post-incrementation truly becomes important, in php, when I use references (which act as pointers in php) rather than names for return values? This would be because copies of references aren't made, so pre-incrementation would be: "Increment j, then go through the statements in the loop with the changed value of j, then increment j again...," whereas post-incremetation would look like: "Use the value of j for the statements in the loop, then change the value of j, then go through the loop with the new value of j..."
Pre- or post-incrementing do not magically delay things until later. It's simply inline shorthand.
// pre-increment
$var = 5;
print(++$var); // increments first, then passes value (now 6) to print()
// post-increment
$var = 5;
print($var++); // passes value (still 5) to print(), then increments
Now let's look at a loop.
for ($i = 0; $i < 9; $i++) {
print($i);
}
The last part of the loop declaration (the $i++) is simply the statement to execute after each time through the loop. It "passes" the value to nowhere, then increments it. $i isn't used anywhere at that time. Later when the next statement is executed (print($i);), the value of $i has already increased.
// add 1, then do nothing with $i
for ($i = 0; $i < 9; ++$i) {}
// do nothing with $i, then add 1
for ($i = 0; $i < 9; $i++) {}
Whichever way you do it, $i will be the same within the loop.
If it helps, you can think of them as small routines that kind of do this:
// ++$i
{
$i = $i + 1;
return $i;
}
// $i++
{
return $i;
$i = $i + 1;
}
As I reread your question, I think the confusion is more with how the loop works than how increment operators work. Keeping in mind that the increment is a straightforward, all-at-once operation, here's how third expression in the loop works.
// here's a basic loop
for ($i = 0; $i < 9; $i++) {
// do loop stuff
print($i);
}
// this is exactly what happens
for ($i = 0; $i < 9; ) {
// do loop stuff
print($i);
$i++;
}
Just because that last line can be put in the loop declaration doesn't give it any special powers. There are no references or anything used behind the scenes. The same $i variable is seen both inside and outside the loop. Every statement inside or outside the loop directly looks up the value of $i when necessary. That's it. No funny business.
When doing $x++, you are post-incrementing... This means that the incrementation will only occur after the statement has been evaluated.
So, given the following code:
$x = 10; $y = 0; $z = 5;
$y = $z * $x++;
PHP does this:
$x = 10; $y = 0; $z = 5;
$y = $z * $x++;
// Ignore Post-Increment, Evalutate
$y = $z * $x;
$y = 5 * 10;
// Now Increment x - POST-INCREMENT
$x = $x + 1;
$x = 10 + 1;
$x = 11;
// Continue evaluating statement
$y = 5 * 10;
$y = 50;
When doing ++$x, you are pre-incrementing... This means that the incrementation will occur before the statement is evaluated:
$x = 10; $y = 0; $z = 5;
$y = $z * ++$x;
// Do Pre-Increment
$x = $x + 1;
$x = 10 + 1;
$x = 11;
// Evaluate
$y = $z * $x;
$y = 5 * 11;
$y = 55;
In the case of a for loop in PHP, PHP evaluates a for loop as follows:
for($i = 0; $i < 30; $i++) {
doSomething();
}
// Is evaluated EXACTLY as such by PHP
$i = 0;
while($i < 30) {
doSomething();
$i++;
}
The first expression ($i = 0) is evaluated (executed) once unconditionally at the beginning of the loop.
In the beginning of each iteration, $i < 30 is evaluated. If it evaluates to TRUE, the loop continues and the nested statement(s) are executed. If it evaluates to FALSE, the execution of the loop ends.
At the end of each iteration, $i++ is evaluated (executed) as an independent expression.
Therefore, post-incrementing or pre-incrementing a variable as the third expression in the loop doesn't have an effect on the behavior of it. In this simple case, both expressions will behave exactly the same.
However, in a complex loop such as the following:
for($i = $j = 0; $i < 30; $i += ++$j) {
$j = getResult($j);
}
Post-incrementing or pre-incrementing $j directly affects the value of $i according to the examples above. In this case, you need to choose exactly what you want to do.
$i = 0;
echo $i++;
echo $i;
$j=0;
echo ++$j;
echo $j;
Pre increment display incremented value. But Post increment display value then increment. About code will output 01 and 11
hello i'm beginner for programming I've got a homework. googled it but couldnt find anything...
i need to get the total value of numbers from 1 to 10. this need to be done in loop. but couldn't figure which loop should i use. if you can also give me an example code thats would be great.
This is a homework question, I'm not sure why people are just giving you an answer to copy-paste.
Achieving the sum of numbers 1..10 is pretty simple. You will need to initialise an empty int var before your loop, and for each iteration from 0 up to and including 10 you will add your int var to the current iteration.
For example:
sum = 0;
for num in range 1 to 10:
sum = sum + num;
<?php
$start = 0; // set the variable that will hold our total
for($i=1;$i<11;$i++){ // set a loop, read here: http://php.net/manual/en/control-structures.for.php for more info
$start += $i; // add $i to our start value
}
echo $start; // display our final value
I would use a for loop.
$total = 0;
for($i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++){
$total += $i;
}
Using the for loop:
<?php
$sum = 0;
for($i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++){
$sum += $i;
}
Using the foreach loop:
<?php
$sum = 0;
foreach(range(1,10) as $num){
$sum += $num;
}
echo $sum; // prints 55
And disregarding your assignment, here is an easier way:
echo array_sum(range(1,10));
I have a problem where I have an array $user.
I have $_SESSION['players'] which has the total amount of $user.
I need a function where I can take the user1 and 2 and use them. Then move on to user3 and 4 and use them, and so on.. until I have used all the players. Obviously the total $user[$i] would be players-1.
Anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks
Would this suit your needs? This requires that there be an even number of players to work properly though, unless you stick in a check for odd numbers:
for ($i = 0; $i < $_SESSION['players']; $i += 2) {
$userA = $user[$i];
$userB = $user[$i + 1];
// Do things with $userA and $userB variables...
}
just because you're taught how to use for loops in one way does not mean that you're stuck continuing to use them the way you were taught:
$length = count($users);
$length = $_SESSION['players'];
for ($i = 0; $i < $length; $i += 2)
{
if (!isset($user[$i], $user[$i + 1])) break;
$userOne = $user[$i];
$userTwo = $user[$i+1];
//do stuff
}
I realized that isset wasn't necessary, the for call could be modified more:
$length = $_SESSION['players'];
for ($i = 0; ($i + 1) < $length; $i += 2)
{
$userOne = $user[$i];
$userTwo = $user[$i+1];
//do stuff
}
EDIT to change how the length was calculated:
EDIT to validate that user exists
